Conditions
Postoperative Pain
Interventions
Drug: Serum saline intravenous
Registration Number
NCT06051630
Lead Sponsor
Université NAZI BONI
Brief Summary

Intravenous administration of lidocaine perioperatively after laparotomy for peritonitis could be an interesting alternative by reducing the duration of postoperative ileus, the intensity of pain and the patient's hospital stay, as well as the cost of management in our context of lack of financial, technical and human resources, hence the present study.

GroupInterventionDescription
Lidocaine groupLidocaine intravenousThe group will receive 1.5 mg/kg lidocaine 2% bolus, followed by a continuous electric syringe dose of 1.5 mg/kg/hour intraoperatively, then 1.5 mg/kg/hour during the first 24 hours postoperatively
Saline groupSerum saline intravenousThe control group will receive an equivalent volume of saline: the volume of saline to be administered will be obtained by considering the dose of lidocaine 2% that the patient would have received if he/she had been in the interventional group.
